We stopped by the Vic Firth booth at Winter NAMM 2018 to take a closer look at some of their new drum sticks for 2018: PureGrit and Double Glaze.
The Vic Firth PureGrit drum sticks are designed for sweaty drummers to keep a firm grip on their sticks, even in the most humid clubs and hole-in-the-walls.
Vic Firth knows that no two drummers are the same and every player's body chemistry is as unique as their playing style, which means some sweat more than others. In Vic Firth's ongoing efforts to address all drummers’ unique needs, they have created a formula for a stick finish that will help drummers who have especially sweaty mits.
They're lacquer free with a special PureGrit processing that adds an abrasive texture. This will give you a better grip so you can ditch the tapes, waxes, gloves and special grips.

The world's most played drum stick, treated with Vic Firth's Double Glaze lacquer formula to help keep the sticks in your hands, securely and comfortably. The Double Glaze is a consistent and classic feel that's great for dry hands, without being too sticky and still allowing for fluid, versatile play.
